Turkey, Arab League welcome UN resolution rejecting Trump’s Jerusalem gimmick! -Dr. Abdul Ruff Colachal
______
On December 20, the UN General Assembly convened to debate US president Trumps’ foolish decision to recognize Jerusalem as new capital of Israel, adopted a document by 128-9 vote, with 35 abstentions. Those 9 countries include USA and Israel and other 7 nations are very small to make any difference and they are the regular recipient of US aid including terror goods. The resolution condemns both US recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel as well as Washington's decision to move its embassy to the ancient city. UN asks Trump to understand the opinions of majority of UN members especially those that boycotted the voting that indirectly support Palestine cause. The resolution demanded that all the states not to recognize any actions or measures that contradict the relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council. A growing number of countries refused to participate in this theater of the absurd, created by Trumps’ racist action. UK has already clearly deviated from the US line of action on Palestine.
